The world of Magic: The Gathering isn't just a card game, it's also an upcoming MMO. The universe also got a nice match-3 game. Interestingly, the developers decided to diversify the game with solutions known from the original card game. In Magic: The Gathering-Puzzle Quest, the lion's share of gameplay still consists of setting at least three objects side by side, but it allows us to use the cards in battles.
During the story campaign, we learn the rules and get new cards. We have quite a lot of these at our disposal, which allows us to build our own deck. Match-3 mechanics are used to generate the energy that can be spend on using specific cards. Their function is not just to damage enemies – we can recall allies, buff them or cast protective spells. As a result, Magic: The Gathering – Puzzle Quest is perfect during encounters with other players, which is the mainstay of this production.
- Magic: The Gathering – Puzzle Quest for iOS is available here, and for Android, here.
